Pumpkin is good eating. Pumpkin baked, stewed, or stuffed, and pumpkin bread, pancakes, or muffins, are sweet.

I had a pumpkin pie but I dropped it, so now it's...

... squash.

My cheesburger pie makes me angry: angry with LOVE.

Other than that, apple pie is the only pie I like. I'll eat the occasional pumpkin but it doesn't really do it for me. Oh, and weird pies like chocolate mousse pies are good. French silk ice cream pie.

Cherry pie pisses me off. It looks like it should taste good, but I hate cherries. All that wonderful pie crust, ruined! My brother is convinced this makes me anti-american.

Cow pies. I have yet to see one that included a single cow.

Cows are too expensive to use a whole one to make a single pie. Cow pies are just made from certain parts of the cow.

That's a load of shit.

I expect you'll be bitterly disappointed when you discover that cottage cheese does not contain any cottages. I know I was.

Tomato pie always makes me angry that it isn't pizza.

Shawnee123 · 10-25-2010, 08:36 AM

Rutabaga pie? Seriously? What's next, brussels sprouts pie? Pea pie? Celery Pie?

Oh shit, you just dredged up a memory.

Spinach pie with brussel sprouts. It was in the regular rotation when I was a kid. (Which means we probably had it like 4 times total.) Yuck.

Looking back, I can only imagine the recipe was that you take a frozen pie shell, dump a bag of frozen brussel sprouts in it. Mix up some eggs in a bowl, and maybe throw a little cheese in too, and then dump a box of frozen spinach in as well. Pour this mixture over the brussel sprouts in the crust, and bake.

brussel sprout and velveeta cobbler

(makes face) my childhood bane was creamed spinach. No pie, but still yucky.

Creamed spinach would bake into a nice savory tart. Cheese on top, of course. And season the creaming to advantage -- little touch of Spike(tm) maybe.

Spinach quiche, anyone? Not yucky, but has crust and a decent chance of changing the minds of the spinach haters. Likewise, adding chopped spinach to quiche Lorraine.

I don't understand either Monster or Shawnee here.

Or any necessity to loathe meringue. It ain't but egg whites, air, sugar and cream of tartar. I can't find an atrocity there no matter how hard I beat it. Wonder how Steve feels about soufflés.

Well, de gustibus... but the sole upside to this is there's all the more for me.

It is true one should not skimp on the pecans in pecan pie filling. But the dark Karo-syrup based goo is part of the charm. And it keeps the pecans on your fork.

I am of the opinion -- de gustibus etcetera -- that regular piecrust has no business in a Key lime pie, though: crumb crust, either graham or gingersnap, both of which are made the same way, cracker or cookie augmented with 1/4 cup sugar and stirred together with melted butter.
